SLV - The Language Podcast - Episode 01

In the first episode of the Language Podcast, I introduce this new format as a way to dive deeper into language learning beyond YouTube shorts. I discuss the challenges of uploading longer videos, potential solutions, and my motivations for starting this channel.

I delve into a bit of my language learning journey, covering Mandarin Chinese and Russian, and share my experiences preparing to learn Korean in just three weeks. I also touch on the importance of effective pronunciation and the challenges faced by ESL teachers.

Join me as I explore language learning techniques, cultural insights, and some personal progress in the languages I'm focusing on right now.
